BENEFITS OF BEING A CAT OWNER
Are you a “cat person” or “dog person” ? Maybe many of you say, I'm a dog person. Of
course that's not wrong, but dogs aren't the only animals that can be friendly with humans.
Cats can be humans best friend too. Why ? Because cats are very good pets because they are
good friends, they are civilized family members, and they are easy to care for.
In addition to being a good friend, raising a cat can also provide many benefits, these benefits
will be detailed below
Some of the benefits of being a “cat person” are obvious. Cats are great for curling up with in
front of a fire or for joining us for a lazy day spent in bed with a good book.
Other benefits of cat ownership are a little less obvious. Here are five great, unexpected
reasons why it’s advantageous to keep a feline friend around.
1st – Cats Help Tackle Stress and Improve Your Mood

Having cats around can have a dramatic impact on our mindsets. According to scientists, if
you spend anywhere from 15 to 30 minutes per day with your cat — cuddling, playing or just
hanging out — your mood might get a boost.
How does it work? It has to do with serotonin — a brain chemical that promotes feelings of
well-being — and cortisol, a chemical associated with stress. When we spend time with cats,
our serotonin levels rise, and our cortisol levels decline. That means the good feelings win!
2nd – Cats Help You Enjoy Better Health

Believe it or not, becoming a cat owner can actually have a number of positive influences on
your health.
The entire list of health benefits is quite long, but the highlights include a lower risk of heart
attack, an improved immune system and even the potential to prevent children from
developing asthma and allergies later in life.
3rd – Cats Keep Rodents at Bay
It’s no secret that cats and mice have a long-running blood feud going on. Whenever there’s a
cat in play, mice are likely to keep their distance.
Yes, catching mice is one of the prized pastimes of the venerable feline order. But although
they love to give chase, cats kill mice fairly infrequently — that is, if they’re of the
domesticated persuasion. Wild cats rely on smaller mammals for food, but your indoor cats
are just in it for the thrill. Even a cat’s smell can be enough to keep mice away.
4th – Cats Help You Recover More Quickly from Trauma

There’s almost no end to the studies that reveal the surprising healing benefits a cat’s
presence can have. We’ve already had a brief look at their general health benefits, but it turns
out cats can also help us recover from various traumas.
Recovering surgery patients and members of the armed forces with PTSD sometimes report
feeling better thanks to the presence of a cat. In particular, people who can’t count on human
loved ones for company report that their mental and physical setbacks improve more quickly
with a little feline companionship.
5th – Cats Help You Stay in Shape

Owning an animal of any kind is a great way to keep your figure in tip-top shape. Although
dogs get the lion’s share of the credit for being great workout companions, cats are also
unsung heroes when it comes to staying trim.
Any cat owner will be able to tell you that cats bore easily, which means they need regular,
novel stimulation to keep from getting restless — that’s where you come in. Keep your cats
active and stimulated by breaking out the laser pointer, feather duster or playing hide-and-go-
seek. Your cats will thank you — and so will your waistline!
The demand for cats has increased from year to year. This can be seen from the diagram
below. The diagram below show the rank of cat ownership in several countries. The bar
graph shows the number of cat ownership in several countries very much. Cat ownership in
Russia is enormous. Many people replace their pets into cats.
From the diagram above, we can conclude that the country that likes cats the most is Russia.
According to diagram, Russia has the highest share of cat owners in the world at 59 percent.
In the United States, the share of cat owners stands at 43 percent and in the UK, it's 32
percent. Feline companions are far less common in Asia with both China and Japan only
having ownership rates of 16 percent each. South Korea comes last with only 9 percent of
people there owning a cat.
Some Russian said, “I like cats for my pet because cats are low maintenance, we usually have
small shelter and lack of time for pet care. So we think cats are the ideal home pet for us.”
So, if you think you are people who don't have time to take care of pets, but want to have pets
at home, cats are the right choice. Or if you already have a pet at home, maybe you can
replace it with a cat.
